I just have 1 with a 1k limit for emergencies in case I get stuck in a bind since I can only do $300 per day with my atm card. If I use it I pay it off online within the next week...too easy to get behind and always harder to dig back out.

I was 49 in September and never had one until July right before that.Now I have 12.Guess why?I got about a grand by just getting them and making 1 measely purchase.Everyone said my credit rating would go down because of it,it went up a little.Screw the friggin Rothschild new world order rigged banking system on welfare and take their money any way you can get it!!!!!Central banks,fractional fiat currency created from thin air.
If the whole economy plunges into the abbys ,I plan to take all my lines of credit in cash and blow this popcorn stand!

I keep 4.
My AE Blue I can't live without.
I never used my chase card, but they cut me in half from 10K to 5K.
I have two store cards I use. Home Depot (can't live without it), and Best Buy.

I have three.
I plan to reduce this to one at the start of the year, for emergency use only. Credit cards are nothing but trouble, IMO.

I have like a dozen.
Yeah, they cut the limit on a couple of them. One was even closed ($0 balance at the time).... even though they said I could reopen?

Have 7 total:
Costco American Express
****
**********
Discover Card
Kohls
Home Depot
Best Buy
Had the ********** limit cut from 12,500 to 6,000 last month. Didn't matter as the most I put on the card was a couple hundred and I pay the balance off right away.

Two for me:
**** - $6500 limit
********** - $2500 limit
Once the **** gets paid off I'm closing the account, $2500 is more than enough for me and I prefer **********.

Exactly the same as me.

what's your favorite bonus/points promotion
I have an amex and a ****. Great limits on both, never gone over 1/3 the limit on either, no cuts yet.
I like my amex membership rewards although I think they just suffered some inflation, each point seems to be worth less these days.
